Residents at The Circle in Manly are gearing up for their annual 'big style' Halloween celebration. If you'd like to donate individually wrapped lollies to help residents cater for demand, you can drop them off at the Whangaparāoa Family Pharmacy. The residents would like to remind trick or treaters to leave dogs at home and to only visit houses displaying an orange balloon on their mail boxes.

On the city side of the bridge, the Shelly Beach Rd off-ramp and the Curran St on-ramp will be closed from 4am to 11am. The Fanshawe St off-ramp will be closed from 2am until 3pm.
The Northern Busway Bus Only lanes will be closed from Constellation Drive to Onewa interchange, with runners entering the Busway at Smales Farm.

Chicken is a popular dish for many Kiwi families. But are you happy to pay the extra cost for free-range or organic chicken? If so, why do you fork out extra for it? Although buying free-range chicken might be an ethical choice for many, it's not necessarily any healthier than other chicken.
As part of a new Stuff series, we look at why chicken is so cheap to buy nowadays, what happens inside the barn, why chickens get so big and the use of antibiotics in chicken feed. To learn more about what happens to your chicken before you put it in your shopping trolley, click the links above.

Halloween is almost upon us and it's getting bigger every year. How is it in your neighbourhood? Do you enjoy it - why or why not? In some parts of town, where it has become huge, residents are requesting lolly donations to help them cope. Is it right to ask for donations? Is Halloween becoming too stressful? Do you live in a Halloween-crazed area but prefer to stay out of it?
